Ulitsa Starokachalovskaya (Russian: Улица Старокачаловская) is a station on the Butovskaya Light Metro Line of the Moscow Metro subway system in Moscow, Russia. The station, opened with four other light metro stations on 27 December 2003, is named for the street under which the station lies. Its design is unique, as it contains two separate platforms on either side of another metro station, Bulvar Dmitriya Donskogo on the Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya Line.
The station is built with a type of iron-concrete and shiny glazed marble, with sconces in small alcoves hanging above benches for passengers waiting for the next train. The platforms are 4.5m (14 feet) wide and 102m (334 feet) long, making them the shortest platforms underground throughout the metro. It is also the only underground station on the Butovskaya line.
The design of Ulitsa Starokachalovskaya station is made to be similar to that of its corresponding station: Bulvar Dmitriya Donskogo. Light grey and dark green marble adorns the western platform, while light grey and orange marble flanks the walls of the eastern hall. The walls are made of marble and pink granite. The sconces providing illumination are luminescent lamps of a spherical design.
Ulitsa Starokachalovskaya is the northern terminus of the Butovskaya Light Metro line, while Bulvar Dmitriya Donskogo is the southern terminus of the Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya line. There is no pocket track behind the station; the train will leave the platform at which it arrives. The first train leaves at 5:50 in the morning.
